Apple announced three new iPhones in 2018: the iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, and iPhone XR.

The iPhone XS and XS Max are only available in three colors — black, gold, and silver — but the iPhone XR is available in six colors.

If you can't or don't feel like visiting an Apple Store to see the new iPhone XR colors for yourself, YouTuber Marques Brownlee spent some time with the colorful phones at Apple's big September launch event and took some beautiful footage with his 8K camera rig.

Take a look at the red, blue, yellow, white, black, and "coral" versions of the iPhone XR.

Here's the white iPhone XR from the front.

Next to the silver iPhone XS, you can see the iPhone XR is much brighter.

Here's the white iPhone XR from the side. The slightly darker aluminum around the sides of the phone provides a nice contrast.

There aren't many yellow smartphones out there, but you can buy the iPhone XR in yellow. Here's what the front looks like.

And here's the back.

The gold hue is especially noticeable from the side.

Here's the iPhone XR is "coral," which is like pink meets orange.

Coral is almost like a "salmon" color, but definitely leaning more towards orange than pink.

The coral iPhone XR is one of the best-looking options.

Finally, Apple made a red iPhone XR. Here it is from the front.

The iPhone XR marks the first time a Product(RED) color variant of an iPhone is available at launch.

The red iPhone XR gives off serious Ferrari vibes.

The side features a nice matte finish.

Whichever color you choose, you can't go wrong with the iPhone XR — <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/why-you-should-buy-iphone-xs-instead-iphone-xr-2018-12"target="_blank">although I would personally recommend the iPhone XS out of all the new iPhones announced by Apple in 2018</a>.
